    Nope. It's a Skyrim character with nexus mods.

    The Primal belt was also a random drop. The Bosmer shoulders match the look OK, I guess. The rest doesn't but what can you do? ;)

    The principle reason you dont have extremely complicated armours is due to this being an MMO. The more textures and armours there are the worse the performance. That said tunics seems an obvious addition.

    While we're at it, Light Armor desperately needs some tunics, simple breeches with shorter, more open legs, and a few (more or less) bare-chested looks.

    Skyrim's default robes annoyed me, as did the Archmage's poncho.

    It was the *only* model that most enchanted robes came in and the best preenchanted robe in the game looks like a rain suit.

    I dont craft in Skyrim. Adds challenge using only what can be bought or found. Result? I look bad.

    And most armor mods bothered me.

    From what you say. I assume you played too much Nord characters?

    Nightasy's Hmm What To Wear mod. Some minor crafting involved, but it's the most customizable armor mod out there for the game. Base body armor is crafted with an invisible model, then you mix and match whatever armor pieces you want the appearance of, that give no armor value at all (only the base armor of the body piece). You can add in standard dropped gloves/boots/helms to the mix as well, and have the full option spread from ultra skimpy on through massive mixed plate.

    Actually, no. My Skyrim characters are mostly Dunmer and Khajiit.

    While there are light armour jerkins that drop (rarely), only being able to craft light armour robes sucks. Unless I find something really awesome, my characters all wear crafted sets that I make for them. I don't like the robe, because I like to be able to see the pants that I made for my characters (well, I'm OK with having 1 of my characters in a robe for the sake of variety). Because you can only craft robes, I've got a sorcerer wearing a medium armour jerkin even though I'd prefer her to be in all light armour.

    I still want to make something like this:

    http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2010/172/f/f/Piccolo___Commision__by_2D75.jpg

    Mmf. Anyway, that one's without the cape and his headgear (but I like his headgear, I'm sure his entire outfit - sans cape - could be a Redguard style?) I would aim a sorcerer for that sort of set in heartbeat.

    Tbh, my computer isn't that bad although the graphics card is better suited for photo retouch and than for gamimg (a variety of Radeon.) I was a bit taken aback to see it posted in the thread. It doesn't look nearly as bad in-game. My settings are on medium and high; I simply have all of the fancier lighting effects off as I find that my frame rate suffers if I turn them on.

    Im not a fan of primal personally but yeah. Problem I have with cloth armor is it starts looking like its actually made out of leather or vinyl later. Stiff and shiny.

    But we'd just like to be able to craft man-clothes, and not just girly-dresses.

    I'm female, I hate dresses, and skirts. Don't wear them myself, and I certainly don't expect my manly male characters to put up with them.


    Also, as far as video games go, we've been trained - "FOOLSSS! Kill the one in the dressss!"

    Hell, I still peg the guy in the dress first. I'll run up to him and stab his face as hard as I can, repeatedly (even on my ranged guy). Caveat - this only goes for video games. I don't give a damn what you want to wear in public IRL, as long as you're not hiding your eyes or face.

    I just don't want my guys being cross-dressers who look like healers. Even if I am a healer, I sure as hell don't want to look like one. Tamriel has never heard of the Geneva Convention, and medics are fair game here.

    Go out with someone else. Watch peoples hands. Count wristwatches. Compare numbers.

    You and Sweden have this fixation on disgusting fish dishes so Im afraid sometimes.

    And whomever thought surströmming and lutfisk were good ideas needs to take a long walk off a short pier.
